Daisy Does It

April 16, 201414 Comments

On the hanger, this daisy maxi looked frumpy, however I am so excited that after deciding to buy it, it’s such a versatile skirt. The high slits help add some edge to the skirt. Over the weekend, I scored some amazing deals at the local outlets at Banana Republic, PacSun, and J. Crew. I tried on some things that I normally wouldn’t and was happy with the outcome.

What’s your most recent, out-of-your-comfort-zone purchase?

Ruffled Details

I love an outfit that can be career chic and translate into a perfect evening outfit as well. These perfectly versatile black legging from H&M have just the right amount of detail with a golden zipper to make them office appropriate. The ruffled top is perfect with a simple boyfriend blazer for the office and the perfect top for an post-work happy hour. It was my first stab at open toe shoes this season, although my toes were chilly, I am done with boots and sweaters! Happy spring everyone!

As a Topshop + Nordstrom brand ambassador I had an awesome opportunity to be one of the first to shop at the Topshop Nordstrom launch. Check out my Topshop Loves CT post here. I fell in love with this romantic lace top and wore it for Thanksgiving. I a paired it with my old faithful burgundy skinny jeans from American Eagle also worn here and a rose gold watch c/o Guess.

Flowy & Carefree in Italy

September 24, 2013September 24, 20133 Comments

I am still on a high from my trip to Italy. It was amazing and I was happy to spend time with my family & friends while vacationing there. We started in Rome and made our way to Southern Italy, where I fell in love with the Amalfi Coast (Sorrento, Isla de Capri, Positano). Then, we made our way to Verona, Venice, Lake Maggiore, Lake Como, and Florence. Each Italian region has it’s own culture and food and I found myself falling in love with the Amalfi lemons (lemoncello is delicious) and Tuscan Chianti.

My Italia fashion was comfortable and chic so I wore loose, flowy dresses with layers and of course, accessorized everyday. 🙂 Guess sent me this amazing Exotic sport’s watch that was perfect for such an exotic trip! Shop the look here.

Have you been to Italy? What other countries have you visited? This was my first European vacation and something tells me I will be going back in no time!

Berry Layers

As much as we do not want to admit or even think about, fall is right around the corner. However, the beauty of the transitional period of weather is the fabulous mixed you can do with your summer and fall wardrobe to put together an eclectic look. A summer maxi layered with a plain black tank and a jean vest is the perfect look that can be transitioned from 75 degree weather to 60 degree weather since the layers are so relaxed and effortless. The introduction of berry colors such as Essie Plumberry and the gorgeous Clarin’s lipstick shade in Aubergine. The studded Michael Kors cross body and the ECHO Black Studded wedges make the perfect statement for the “almost-fall” look, along with gold accessories such as GUESS’s Chase gold-tine watch pictured above.

How are you mixing your summer and fall pieces?
